UKNIWM Ref 44337
Location is inside Kirkmichael Parish church, Parkgate at OS Map Ref: NY 004 883
UKNIWM describes the church location as Townhead but it is in fact in Parkgate. In this area, Townhead is a term used to describe the top end of the village (in height or furthest from the main road) and Townfoot is the lower end. There are lots of Townheads and Townfoots (and Lochhead and Lochfoot). But the village name here is Parkgate.

| I like this Roll of Honour - the Lion Rampant, Union 'Jack' and wreath. Simple but beautifully done. The handwriting is lovely. |
